Widnes lure Moule back to game

Having retired mid-season in the prime of his career, former Melbourne centre Aaron Moule has signed with British club Widnes.

The Lancashire team, which recently tempted former Australian fullback Tim Brasher out of retirement, has been negotiating with Moule for several weeks.

After quitting the game to concentrate on his private investment business, Moule spent a couple of hours on the beach thinking on Wednesday before signing his Widnes contract - thought to be for one year with another season's option.
